BUGS & FUN AT HOME

Jump down to the Getting Started section to find out how to get involved.

Bugs and Fun @home was an event run during the pandemic where Joomla enthusiasts were meeting online to improve Joomla. This is not only for improving the code of Joomla but also the documentation and translation. It was an online event for everybody to come, have fun and meet fellow Joomlers.

The idea behind organizing Bugs and Fun @home events is to achieve these goals:

  • Reduce the number of open issues
  • Get Joomla tested on different environments
  • Get more people interested in testing issues at home
  • Meet fellow Joomlers online
  • Have fun and learn in a friendly environment

Origin

The idea for Bugs & Fun @home came about when most of Europe was in lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic. It came out of a discussion in a Production team meeting. The first incarnation was Pizza Bugs & Fun without the Pizza And the first online meeting Saturday 4th April. It is held weekly every Saturday. It's name was changed to Bugs & Fun @Home. Details were on a spreadsheet until this article was written.

What's next?

The are looking at several activities to reinvigorate the community. If you are interested in sharing ideas, reach out on Mattermost or contact the VET.

There's plenty of tasks needing to be done by people with many skills and interests - it's not all just patch testing, and we don't expect everyone to walk in the door, turn on beastmode and clear the queue!

There's many ways to contribute to Joomla, and most are self-paced. Visit https://joomla.org/contribute-to-joomla.html/ for more information.

Tools To Use
